When there used to be two, everyone referred to them as the 'top' or 'bottom bowling green'.

Although they will, when talking about the trophy which apparently is going to be presented in his honour, which is a better idea.

I think the idea of naming something after him in the constituency, which actually has a postal address, would be a much more fitting memorial.
I think it could only be, as cashy suggested, Eastgate, I think I'm right in saying there are no residences on there so it wouldn't cause any problems with address changes, Ken would have hated that
